San Francisco, California, has become the first city for new parents to have fully-paid time off. The city council passed this law Tuesday, April 5th, which states that the parents will get 6 weeks of paid leave. Originally, the CA state insurance program said that new parents get 55% of their wages for time off for their kids. Now, it requires the employers to pay their workers 100% of what they usually get. The law also says that it’s illegal to fire a worker that took parental leave. This law will start on January 1, 2017 for companies that have 50 or more employees. For places that have 20 or more workers, this law will start on July 1, 2017.
